These Finals Week Memes Provide The Funniest Study Break

The end of the semester is near, which only means one thing: finals week, and along with it, finals week memes. Finals week is the more complicated older sister to midterms season — it’s stressful, time consuming, and incredibly crucial for a college student. Self-care is key for conquering finals week, and there are so many methods students use such as working out or spending time with friends. Let’s face it: It’s hard. Having to juggle studying, end-of-semester festivities, and prepping for the holidays can be so harsh on your mental health, hence why it’s important to have that release.

My favorite method of relaxation during finals week is being on my phone and scrolling on social media. If I didn’t have any other responsibilities, then I could possibly spend hours scrolling through Instagram and TikTok for a quick laugh. Memes dedicated especially to finals week are 10 times funnier, because I can definitely relate to most of them. Since you’re a little busy studying, I did you a favor and found some of the internet’s best finals week memes to give you a much-need laugh. Thank me later!
